Principle

Ni-NTA Fast Start Kitは、6個以上のヒスチジン残基(連続または交互)のアフィニティタグ(Hisタグ)を含むタンパク質に対する特許取得済みのNi-NTA(ニッケル-ニトリロ三酢酸)樹脂の優れた選択性に基づいています。この技術により、天然または変性条件下で、ほぼすべてのHisタグ付きタンパク質をワンステップ精製できます。ニッケルイオンに対して4つのキレート部位を持つNTAは、金属イオンとの相互作用に利用できる部位が3つしかない金属キレート精製システムよりもしっかりとニッケルに結合します。余剰なキレート部位がニッケルイオンの浸出を防ぐため、他の金属キレート精製システムを使用した場合よりも高純度のタンパク質調製物が得られます。Hisタグは、キットに付属のPenta·His Antibodyによって認識されるエピトープも生成します。

Procedure

細胞を付属の溶解緩衝液で溶解し、遠心分離して澄明な溶解物を入手します。この溶解物をFast Start Columnにかけます。カラムでは、Hisタグ付きタンパク質が高い親和性で結合し、タグなしタンパク質は通過します。洗浄後、精製タンパク質をイミダゾールを含むバッファー(天然条件)または低pHバッファー(変性条件)を用いて溶出します(図  高純度6xHisタグ付きタンパク質を参照)。精製手順とタンパク質の収量は、SDS-PAGE、ウェスタンブロッティング、付属のPenta-His Antibodyを用いる免疫検出でたどることができます。

FAQ

What are your recommendations for PCR template preparation for use with the EasyXpress Insect Kit II?

We recommend to use the EasyXpress Linear Template Kit Plus to generate PCR products optimized for use in protein expression with the EasyXpress Insect Kit II.

This kit uses specially designed primers to amplify coding DNA sequence and supplement it with regulatory elements required for optimal transcription and translation in cell-free expression systems. In addition, specially designed 5' untranslated regions (UTRs) on the sense adapter primer sequences reduce the formation of secondary structure in the translation initiation region, one of the commonest causes of low expression rates. A His-or Strep-tag II can be added to either terminus, greatly simplifying protein purification and detection after expression.

FAQ ID -1221
Are the buffers in the Ni-NTA Fast Start Kit the same as the ones for use with Ni-NTA purchased separately?

The buffers of the Ni-NTA Fast Start Kit are based on recipes for the respective buffers for purification of 6xHis-tagged proteins under native or denaturing conditions listed in the QIAexpressionist handbook. Specific components have been added for optimized performance. The exact composition of the buffers in the Ni-NTA Fast Start Kit is confidential. However, the buffers listed in the Appendix Section of the QIAexpressionist are compatible with the Ni-NTA Fast Start Kit, and can also be used.

FAQ ID -791
Which resin is used in the QIAexpress Ni-NTA Fast Start Columns?
The Fast Start Columns in the QIAexpress Ni-NTA Fast Start Kit are prepacked with Ni-NTA Superflow resin.
FAQ ID -836
How can I remove imidazole from a protein sample?
Imidazole does not interfere with most downstream applications and therefore does not need to be removed. If it is necessary to remove the imidazole (e.g., for some sensitive enzyme assays), it can be easily achieved by dialysis, precipitation (e.g., ammonium sulfate), or ultrafiltration.
FAQ ID -91
What are the features and benefits of the QIAexpress 6xHis Tag System?

FEATURES BENEFITS
The interaction of the 6xHis tag with Ni-NTA matrices is conformation independent One-step purification can be carried out under native or denaturing conditions
Mild elution conditions can be used Binding, washing, and elution are highly reproducible, and have no effect on protein structure. Pure protein products are ready for direct use in downstream applications
The 6xHis tag is much smaller than other commonly used tags 6xHis tags can be used in any expression system. The Tag does not interfere with the structure and function of the recombinant protein
The 6xHis tag is uncharged at physiological pH The 6xHis tag does not interfere with secretion
The 6xHis tag is poorly immunogenic The recombinant protein can be used without prior removal of the tag as an antigen to generate antibodies against the protein of interest
Using Factor Xa Protease, 6xHis tag can be easily and efficiently removed The detagged protein can be used for crystallographical or NMR studies where removal of the 6xHis tag may be preferred
Some QIAexpress vectors feature a 6xHis-dihydrofolate reductase tag (6xHis-DHFR tag) Small peptides fused to the 6xHis DHFR tag are stabilized while being expressed. The 6xHis-DHFR tag is not highly immunogenic in mouse and rat, so that peptides fused to the tag can be used directly for immunizations or epitope mapping

 

FAQ ID -193
Should I use Ni-NTA Agarose in column or batch format for purification of 6xHis-tagged proteins?
The binding capacity of Ni-NTA Agarose is the same regardless of the format used. However, the batch procedure (mixing the Ni-NTA resin with lysate or protein sample prior to loading it onto a column, as opposed to loading the sample onto a column pre-packed with Ni-NTA resin) can provide more efficient binding for dilute proteins, since binding can be carried out for an extended period (approximately 1 hour), and resin amounts can be scaled for variable amounts of lysate/protein sample.
FAQ ID -147
3353 - What is the composition of the elution buffer in the Ni-NTA Fast Start Kit?

The composition of the elution buffer in the Ni-NTA Fast Start Kit is 50 mM Na-phosphate, 300 mM NaCl and  250 mM imidazole at pH 8.0.

FAQ ID - 3353
Can Ni-NTA resins be used to purify protein with an internal His-tag?
Yes, Ni-NTA Agarose and Superflow will bind a 6xHis-tag whether it is located internally or at the C- or N-teminal end of the protein. Note that the His-tag must be exposed for binding at the surface of the protein to allow for efficient purification under native conditions.

FAQ ID -49
How can I be sure that I am harvesting my induced bacterial culture at the best time point for protein expression?

To optimize the expression of a given recombinant protein, a time-course analysis of the level of protein expression in the induced culture is recommended. Intracellular protein content is often a balance between the amount of soluble protein in the cells, the formation of inclusion bodies, and protein degradation. By checking the 6xHis-tagged protein present at various times after induction in the soluble and insoluble fractions, the optimal induction period can be established, and the bacterial culture can be harvested at this time. It may be useful to perform plasmid Mini preparations on culture samples during the time-course to enable monitoring of plasmid (expression construct) maintenance.

Below, you can see an example of a time course of recombinant protein expression using the QIAexpress System. You can find this information also in the Section 'Expression in E. coli' in the QIAexpressionist Handbook. The handbook is an important resource for useful background information and protocols. For instructions on how to isolate protein from the soluble and insoluble fractions of induced cultures please see Protocol 14. "Protein minipreps of 6x His-tagged proteins from E. coli under native conditions" and Protocol 19. "6xHis-tagged protein minipreps under denaturing conditions."
